 browsing and retrieval tools, which allow you to quickly browse through a
 visual gallery or textual list of all files or find just the images you want
 by specifying keywords, file types, filenames or volumes. All the images are
 annotated with short descriptions identifying the subject content and/or
 the location.

All the images are cross-referenced by 22 major categories/themes.

All images are in uncompressed TIFF format using the universal ISO 9660
 standard for CD-ROM. This permits any CD-ROM disc in
 the WorldBank Collection to be read by Macintosh or MS-DOS-compatible
 computers and many Unix platforms. It also means all these images are
 also importable by almost all image-handling applications available in
 those same computing environments.

The 24 CD's are divided into two editions. Edition 1 has the first half
 of the images (1,500 or so, countries Argentina through first half of
 Hong Kong) and edition 2 has the second half (second half of Hong Kong
 through United States). Each image is 32-bit, CMYK (ie. already
 color-separated), color-corrected, uncompressed TIFF, 300 dpi giving
 a 150 line screen. Each Edition retails for
 US $499.00 (Cdn. $650 each) or US $998 (Cdn. $1,300) for the full
 high resolution set of 24 CD's.

The WorldBank is packaged in handsome protective CD wallets. The developer of
 the wallet states the liner of each pocket in the wallet is comprised of a
 patented material that lifts minute particles away from the CD each time it
 is placed into the pocket, thus providing a measure of added protection for
 each CD.

The Collection is also accompanied by six 40" x 28" full-color posters which
 have been further color-categorized so that individual images appear on the
 posters in the same order they appear on each color-coded CD - all
 to maximize easy reference.
